Why convert TIFF to JPG?
TIFF is the format of scanners, printers and archives. It can store images without loss in many variants, but files are large and web browsers can't show them.
JPG (JPEG) is the classic format for photos. Its lossy compression keeps files small, but it has no transparency and slightly softens sharp edges and text.
Choose JPG when the image is a photo and a small file that opens everywhere matters most.

Good to know
- Uncompressed, LZW and PackBits TIFF files open in every browser here, even though browsers can't display TIFF themselves.
- JPG has no transparency, so transparent areas get a background color. White is the default; you can pick any other color.
- JPG is lossy. At the default quality of 85 the difference is hard to see and the file is usually much smaller; raise the quality for images with fine text.
